[socal-piggies] Next proposed meeting Thur. Nov. 13 + poll on meeting place

[Grig Gheorghiu]

As I said in an earlier message today, let's shoot for the 2nd Thursday in November, the 13th, for our next meeting. Two people have offered a meeting room so far. Here are the options:

1) Doug Stuart from Technical Connections has offered a 16-20 person meeting room at their West L.A. location:

11400 Olympic Boulevard, Suite 700, LA 90064

Here's what Doug says about the venue:

"You will need to send a list of everyone who is coming so that security can let them up to our floor.  There is free parking after 6pm at metered spots on the cross street (Purdue) of our building and neighboring streets.

There is also an Italian restaurant downstairs, Il Moro, which serves a free appetizer buffet in their bar after 5pm and as long as you purchase a drink.  That could be a good place to mingle before your meetings."

The thing about this meeting room is that it's maxed out at 20 people.

2) Charlie Hornberger from Yellowpages.com has offered a 33+ person meeting room at their location in Glendale, right where Brand Blvd. goes over the 134.

Pizza would also be offered by Yellowpages, at least for the next meeting. The advantage of this room is that it can potentially sit up to 40 people.

So anyway, please let me know what your vote is: #1 or #2. The sooner the better, so we can make arrangements properly.
